COIN Center Calls on Kiwi Hard Yakka
The US Army / USMC Counterinsurgency Center is pleased to host Major Josh Wineera during a COIN Center Webcast Wednesday, 23 SEP 09 from 1000 to 1100 CST (1100 – 1200 EST). Major Wineera will explore the difficulty in capturing a greater understanding of the complex contemporary operational environment. To explore that difficulty, Wineera examines the role of the Human Terrain System teams and a developing New Zealand Army model to control what David Kilcullen has labeled the conflict ecosystem. As a lead-in to this webcast please see Wineera’s The Colloquium article Inter-Bella: Understanding the Area of Operations Ecosystem.
Major Josh Wineera, New Zealand Army, has served in Iraq, East Timor, Bougainville, and Bosnia. He is a guest lecturer at the New Zealand Defence College and Massey University, and is a part-time Master’s student at the Centre for Defence Studies, Massey University.
